Space Cap Hotel

Decided to try this capsule since I was travelling alone + had great experience staying capsule hotels throughout Japan. Good location, rather central, Starbucks & convenience store just downstairs. Paid an average of just S$11 per night, great value considering breakfast is included, though a simple one with bread/ jam spreads/ instant coffee. Washing machine free to use, but your clothes are never really dry since its cramped together with someone else’s wet laundry next morning. The capsules themselves are made from cheap plastic, squeaks loudly every time you move, absolutely nothing like those I stayed througouht Japan, plus the blue themed lights made it even harder to sleep. Wi-fi signal is pretty bad from within the capsule. Spent 3 nights here before moving to the newly built 5-star Marriott across the street.
Mercure Kota Kinabalu City Centre

I recently stayed at Mercure Kota Kinabalu, and my overall experience was a mixture of positives and negatives. The hotel's ambiance and service were generally acceptable, but a couple of aspects left me with a less than perfect impression. On the positive side, the room, although not the promised city view, was comfortable and well-maintained. The amenities provided were standard and met our basic needs for a short stay. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful, adding a pleasant touch to our overall experience. However, one notable drawback was the discrepancy in the room description. Despite being assured of a city view, we were assigned a room overlooking the opposite facing the busy road. While this may seem like a minor issue, it did impact our overall satisfaction, as the promise of a particular view was one of the factors influencing our choice. Another inconvenience was the lack of dedicated parking facilities at the hotel. This meant that my husband had to purchase parking coupons daily, adding an unexpected expense to our stay. Moreover, the strict enforcement of parking regulations by 8 am posed a challenge, especially for guests who preferred to start their day later. In conclusion, Mercure Kota Kinabalu is a decent choice for a short stay, offering comfortable accommodations and friendly service. However, potential guests should be aware of potential discrepancies in room assignments and the absence of on-site parking facilities, which may affect the overall convenience and cost of their stay.
King Park Hotel Kota Kinabalu
4.4/522 Reviews
City Center
This is our second stay at king park, last trip was about 7 years ago. We feel very welcomed by the friendly staffs, the hotel is quiet, clean and cosy, the overall service and stay quality is maintained well as per our last stay, we are happy with it. We also love the breakfast buffet, it has improved from the last trip, simple yet very delicious. The only part we would like to bring out is the shower water will spill over to the toilet bowl area, hope this can be improved. The hotel is within 5-10min walking distance to ***a street with lots of nice eateries, or you may take grab which cost only RM5.
Citadines Waterfront Kota Kinabalu
4.3/551 Reviews
City Center
Staff is very friendly and accommodating. Not to mention the great location close to night market and all convenient things like pharmacies, the mall, etc. Right on the waterfront so you get a pretty nice view from the Infinity pool, proper modern gym, and amenities. There is an organic coffee place in the bottom, which is fantastic. Very good value for money of all the places I’ve stayed on my six week trip probably one of the top in terms of overall attention to detail and positive attitude all around.
